The cloud-based solution enables a superior car buying experience for both consumers and dealerships. For the first time, this new software will provide access to Upstart-powered auto loans as well.
Very cool! I thought they were going to hit the auto-refinance angle harder before moving on this. This is a good sign for more than business strategy, it means the acquisition integration has been going well.
I’m really excited by this moment in their story as we get to see how they handle expanding in to a new vertical and new tech. This is the hardest part. If they nail this than doing it again shouldn’t be too much trouble (mortgages, etc).
